About Me!

Hey there! I’m Ian Sugg, a passionate and dedicated cybersecurity professional with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Arizona State University, specializing in Cybersecurity. My journey in Cybersecurity is backed by industry recognized certifications from (ISC)² and CompTIA, including my CC and CySA+.

I thrive in the ever-changing and exciting world of Cybersecurity, where I bring a robust breadth of knowledge. My experience includes learning object-oriented programming and agile development at ASU, scripting for automation in Python and JavaScript, configuring and tuning Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems, and performing reverse engineering and exploit development with Python using pwntools for CTFs.

Beyond just Computer Science, I’m an avid car enthusiast, and metalhead. I love JDM tuner cars, and the history and culture behind them. I daily drive a lightly modified Scion tC, and am a huge Toyota fan! I also enjoy thrash metal, bands like Metallica, and Slayer. If I’m not hacking something new, I’m probably at a car meet, or in the mosh pit!

Here you can check out my portfolio of personal projects and resume! While there is a heavy focus on my cybersecurity career, and the experiments done in my homelab, additionally included is an explanation of my coursework at ASU, videogames made since high school, and interactive data visualizations.
